Hmmmmm

So I guess the main change is that since October 2015 release the latex
format includes
ltluatex (basically a refactored luatexbase)  however the lua part of that
is loaded at \everyjob
as you can't save lua state in the format.

So what's affected you is that luaotfload detects it's running under latex
so doesn't load
ltluatex (or luatexbase) however at the point you are using it only the tex
side of ltluatex is loaded.

A quick test suggests that this should work (at least the format makes
without error) you'll need to
check whether it works for your use case, ping back if it doesn't...

\input latex.ltx

%\nonstopmode

\directlua{require("ltluatex")}
\RequirePackage{luaotfload}

\DUMP
